It’s the same with other tools, drills, sanders, saws etc. The downside is keeping the batteries charged. Most serious users need multiple batteries, and to keep the spares on charge while working. The cost of the batteries is quite high, but then again, our electric, although it’s a high price, is nearly all hydro, so a lot of environmental impact saving in going all electric.
